Just some notable stuff I’ve recently found that is worth passing along:

Staying Faithful – Donald Miller audio on Veritas Forum
The first half is a talk by Don in which is thoughtfulness shines. Plan on some time after listening to just sit and journal some thoughts. (Disclaimer: I might romanticize this talk a bit because I happened to be driving by Lake Union just as he mentioned sitting on the shores of it!)

MrDeity.com
Don’t bother with this one if you believe in a God who doesn’t have a sense of humor or who isn’t big enough to stand up to some sarcasm or critique.

The Merlin Show
Merlin Mann is somewhat of a poster child for the tech/creative net culture — most notable 43Folders. The Merlin Show is his video podcast (can we come up with a better name for this already?) with tips and thoughtful interviews.

Highrise
From the makers of Backpack and Basecamp comes their latest online collaborative project — Highrise. Highrise is 37Signals’ take on collaborative contact management. I haven’t explored it enough yet, but I’m wondering if this could adequately function as a church database.
